RS4 Steering Wheel Vibration
Has anyone out there noticed around 110km/h indicated that there is a vibration through the steering wheel. And i've tried rebalancing of all wheels , swapped front to back and rebalanced. A new set of tyres has not changed the issue or the speed that it occurs at?? Any help or thoughts would be appreciated. Cheers.

When I picked my car I drove it on the highways for like 900 miles to get home. I did all the way to almost 90 mph or more for hours during the 2 days back and I never noticed anything out of the ordinary. No vibration no shaking.
I am with the other members maybe you have a bent or worn tie rod or control arm. From your different switches of tires and a wheels I think it is probably a suspension issue.

Mine does this at certain speeds, on grooved concrete. It's the dunlops tramlining, or some form of it. Causes the steering wheel to jiggle a little bit - car still tracks straight though. This happened on my M5 with Dunlops too despite multiple wheel rebalancing. Doesn't happen on any other type of road surface.

Orig it had pirelli p zero's and has done this from brand new. I am now running Dunlop super sport race which also have the same issue a the same speed. Dunlops are heaps grippier though and would recomend them to anyone who drives hard on road or track. I have also had both sets of tyres on the hunter machine and also audi's 4 wheel alignment machine without any change.

Had your problem... but
dealer fixed it. I was having issues with my tire pressure gauge. It wasn't working correctly and giving me misreads on my tire pressure. Anyway, I brought it into the shop and they fixed both problems. I think that you should check the tire pressure and or see if your wheels are balanced and rim isn't bent. One of those is the most likely the problem.
